Quinoa Is All The Rage, Food Justice With Marcia Veldman

It sometimes feels like an addiction, but for the most part I think it's a healthy addiction. Although, sometimes when I'm standing up from the ground and it's taking a while to straighten out my knees I kind of wonder.

That's Marcia Veldman, coordinator of the Bloomington Community Farmers Market. In part two of our conversation, she talks about her obsession with growing and what food justice means to her.

From Harvest Public Media, thanks to budget cuts, there may be fewer dollars allocated for conservation of land.

We speak with the author of a new cookbook all about quinoa, and that's the ingredient of choice for Chef Daniel Orr today as well.
